POPPYOSCAR

We have just erected a greenhouse that was in the box in the garage for a few years.We have the glass (some broken) and the glazing clips but there should be some sort of glazing strip but we can't find it(prob got thrown away as box was open) can any one please advise on what to get for this?Also any other tips that you have about setting up and using a greenhouse.

Many thanks.

What Make is it? can you email the manufacturer and ask for a local supplier.

It was bought from Tesco and when I say a few years ago it was quite a few years ago!!! Does if make a difference, are they made differently? I have thought about contacting Tesco but I have my doubts that they will be able to help.I thought somebody experienced on here might be able to advise me.
Im going to go to a garden centre and have a look at the greenhouses and see how the glass is put in.

Thanks

I've just put up a greenhouse a got from B&Q, there was glazing strip that fitted arould the door but the windows only had the clips holding them in.
If it came to the push could you get some narrow Gaffa (spl) tape.

Many thanks.

The black rubber stuff? Don't bother, the old stuff may be hard and rotting. Use draught excluder instead. Nice and cheap at this time of the year too.
